WORLD'S FIRST SPACE EXPLORATION UNCONFERENCE ANNOUNCED

"SpaceUp" to be held in San Diego

San Diego, CA – It's an exciting time for space exploration: SpaceX is
launching the first low-cost rockets, Virgin Galactic recently unveiled
SpaceShipTwo, and Bigelow Aerospace is building private habitats in orbit.
These forward-thinking companies—and dozens of others just like them—are all
within a day's drive of San Diego. Which is why the San Diego Space Society
is today announcing SpaceUp, the world's first space exploration
unconference, to be held in late February/early March, 2010. More
information is available at SpaceUp.org.

"The tech unconferences I've been part of are downright electrifying. It's
high time we start one for the space community," says Chris Radcliff, San
Diego Space Society board member and SpaceUp unconference chairman. "There's
so much excitement about this idea already, we want to let people
participate even before we have a definite date."

The unconference format, which has been popularized in the tech community
via such events as BarCamp and FooCamp, offers a unique forum where the
participants decide the topics, the schedule, even the structure of the
event. Everyone who attends the unconference is encouraged to give a talk,
moderate a panel or start a discussion. SpaceUp applies this non-profit
model to the space industry for the first time.

Both industry professionals and ardent outer-space enthusiasts are invited
to participate, with attendance capped at 200 people to ensure meaningful
interaction among all participants. Registration details for the
unconference are still being set, but individuals can indicate their
interest and reserve a spot via http://tr.im/kickitup.

Further information on SpaceUp is available at SpaceUp.org, via the SpaceUp
Twitter feed, www.twitter.com/spaceupconf, or on the SpaceUp Facebook page,
